Be very careful picking on Jerry boys, I've known several older equipment operators over the years, they tend to be ornery as all get out. Their upper body strength is nothing to trifle with, and don't try to out drink them, you will lose! They are also some of the best friends I've ever had...they are missed.

Mike, when they were building 1-44 in the 1960's, they needed borrow pits for intersections, crossovers and the few valleys. As you drive along now, you see hundreds of ponds and small lakes along the highway. Most of them are concentrated around the features where the dirt was built up. But, there is one lake that is located along a seemingly flat stretch of highway. It is parallel to the roadbed, long and skinny, just like most of the others that you see. Because there are so many of these lakes before and after it, you might not raise an eyebrow as to why it is there. However, to the practiced eye, you cannot see any place where they used the dirt.

We all know jerry is the REAL dirt perfect

Small ponds here are vital for maintaining the mosquito population...

That’s a very nice pond build , now that is going to a awesome swimming hole and blue Gill and bass pond. Or raise some supper big catfish . Nice and deep. Great pond. Love it.

👍 Looks like the beginning of a nice little ecosystem once it fills and the mud settles. Thanks for sharing.

[@BeytekinConstructionMachinery]

The result looks great! 👏

Another beautiful job. ❤

Thanks for sharing your thoughts and video. Nice pond build there. I was thinking, if they run short of water at least they have a really nice and safe fire pit. Great seeing the comradery between you and the crew. Wishing you and your family the best.

I think your boys need to get them some camelbacks. It’s a water filled pack you have on your back that keeps the water cool to drink from a tube. We used them while deployed in the Middle East. The water was always with then

Aaron you are officially in charge of operating the smaller equipment. Mike is a little to dangerous on them. Lol God bless

[@bobbydawson7706]

The odd ball vedio. It has helped me out operating the equipment I operate. So all I can say is well done with your team! Love it ❤️❤️

We used an old dozer track hanging off an excavator for smoothing fill slopes on logging roads.

I for one would like to see the pond when it gets full and grass is back I think it's going to be fantastic

[@DaleDirt]

Awesome as usual , just keep doing what your doing .

[@johnmattu7262]

Smartest thing I saw you do D.P. was reconsider the positioning on that one tree you said "I think I can get behind that one", I was thinking good move. Nice job guys, It turned out great!
